中国女子来新做咖啡妹，每天工作12小时不喊苦，但本地茶客却替她感到辛苦，让她惊讶新加坡人无法接受长时间工作！她把感想写成文章放上部落格，引起网民热烈讨论。
咖啡妹丽晶来自中国辽宁省本溪市，她在2008年5月来狮城，今年5月约满返回家乡后，把来新工作?#173;历写成文章。
其中一段谈及她在咖啡店工作时，总有很多茶客尤其是办公司女职员，在得知她每日需工作12小时，就睁大双眼一脸不能置信，还给予同情表情。
丽晶认为在狮城工作12小时不算什么，因她以前在家乡作服装店销售员时更辛苦。
她说，在狮城工作还可在周末休息一天半，她在家乡根本全日无休一周做足7天，而且每月只能挣到区区170元（约800人民币）。
因此她在约满后非常想继续留在新加坡工作，可惜约满后7天应征了50份工作皆无下文，唯有无奈返回本溪。
她说，有机会的话将和妹妹一同到狮城打工，存够钱后返回家乡开服装店做生意。

S'porean Can't Take Hardship?
PRC girl came to Singapore to work as kopitiam lady. Everyday she worked for 12 hours without complaining about hardship. But the kopitiam customers felt otherwise. She was surprised to see that Singaporeans couldn't take long working hours! She wrote down her thoughts in a blog, causing heated discussions among the netizens.
Kopitiam girl, Li Jing came from Benxi City, Liaoning Province. She came to Singapore in May 2008. She went home in May this year after her contract expired. She wrote down her working experience here in an article.
In one part, she wrote that during her work in the coffee shop, there were a lot of customers, especially office ladies, when learned about her 12 hour day work, would stare with incredulous look and sympathise her.
Li Jing felt that working for 12 hours a day in Singapore was nothing because when she was working as a salesgirl in a clothing store at home, it was even more difficult.
She said that working in Singapore can at least rest for 1.5 day over the weekend. In her hometown, she used to work 7 days a week without rest, earning only a mere S$170 (about RMB 800)
Hence, upon her contract expiry, she very much wanted to continue to stay in Singapore to work. However, after applying for 50 jobs with no response, she had to reluctantly return home on the 7th day of her contract expiration.
She said that if there is an opportunity, she will want to come with her sister to Singapore to work again. She wants to make enough money to go back home and open a clothing store.
